Women's gold cross

On what occasions are women's gold crosses purchased? Nowadays, they are often chosen as gifts for christenings, first communions, and confirmations. It is a gift appropriate for the occasion, very symbolic, yet also memorable and sentimental. When purchasing such a gift, it's worth considering whether to buy just the pendant or to complete the set with a chain. Many people believe that it's inappropriate to give just the pendant; the entire set, ready to wear, should be gifted. This is more elegant. Additionally, due to the different thicknesses of clasps, matching both at the purchase stage greatly facilitates the recipient's use.

Women's gold crosses are a wonderful addition to a woman's accessories

In the past, wearing a cross had an exclusively religious character. It signified belonging to a religious community and was a symbol of faith. Of course, over time, the decorative element of this piece of jewelry was emphasized. Master jewelers competed in creating intricate shapes, encrusting them with precious stones to showcase their skills and craftsmanship. Furthermore, we can certainly say that richly encrusted, lavish ornaments indicated social status, family wealth, and significance in the hierarchy. Today, the cross has become a more neutral decorative element.

Which karat to buy?

It's also worth considering whether the cross should be made of the highest karat gold - 24k, or perhaps more popular versions - 8k and 14k. The higher the karat, the higher the price of the metal per gram, but also the greater its investment value. On such occasions, it's worth choosing a simple, almost ascetic design, as it will be universal. Minimalism, the principle of "less is more," should be key when selecting a gift to avoid worrying about not matching the recipient's taste.

Apart from religious aspects, these jewelry pieces are often worn as necklaces by celebrities and even attached to bracelets. Moreover, they have become a fashionable accessory, breaking conventions. Women's gold crosses today are almost an eccentric part of an outfit, especially when they are large, heavy, massive, and encrusted with diamonds. Such ornaments often appear in the styles of stars from the front pages of magazines. Many people want to emulate this fashion, hence the increasing range of glamorous jewelry in many online stores. This offers a wide range of wearing possibilities, ensuring everyone finds something for themselves. The variety of offerings allows for selecting ornaments for every occasion. For everyday wear, more modest, simple, universal models that match any clothing style are recommended. For grand outings, when aiming for a "wow" effect, one can opt for something larger and richly decorated.

Luxury jewelry for women and today's trends

Top fashion designers are increasingly using religious symbols as motifs that capture the audience's interest, often causing a stir. They ensure that everyone will talk about a particular collection and its creator. Nevertheless, this symbol in the 20th and 21st centuries appears in pop culture detached from religion. This trend has allowed jewelry designers to further spread their wings, using the shape without considering its religious significance, prioritizing aesthetic considerations and modern trends. Therefore, wearing women's gold crosses is now widely considered fashionable.

Who is it dedicated to?

A gold chain and a gold medallion make an ideal gift for a religious occasion such as a baptism, as well as for a first holy communion, confirmation, and wedding. They can also be given to a child as a protective talisman on the occasion of birth. This is a perfect keepsake with a variety of designs, making it suitable to be gifted by godparents, grandparents, uncles, and aunts. Of course, we won't hang gold jewelry around a baby's neck, but surely, as they grow older, they will appreciate such a subtle, elegant, and luxurious gift. To ensure the medallion brings good fortune to the newborn, it's worth paying attention to its shape, motif, and variety of designs. For a birth, a medallion with an angel, suitable for both boys and girls, would be appropriate.

Holy Baptism and First Holy Communion are occasions for which crosses made of white or yellow gold are most commonly given. However, it is advisable for parents to agree with guests beforehand on the type of sacred gift, so that the young person receives various forms of jewelry, not just gold or silver crosses. These can include chains, medallions, pendants, charms, bracelets, made from both yellow and white gold as well as silver. Jewelry with engraving, a dedication from godparents, grandparents, and also combined from different metals, such as gold and silver, adorned with gemstones, is also a good idea. Gold jewelry is not only an exclusive keepsake but also an investment in the child's future. Gold has been among the most valuable metals in the world for years. Pure, 14-carat gold can reach a price of several thousand zlotys, so such a jewelry set can secure your child's future and education, at least in their early stages.

Gold crosses on a chain are also worth giving to newlyweds, both as a standalone piece of luxury jewelry and as part of a set that includes women's earrings or even women's and men's bracelets. Such a wedding gift made of white or yellow gold, additionally combined with silver and, for example, cubic zirconia, will symbolize happiness and protection for the new union.

Gold jewelry with a cross will also delight a senior on their jubilee day. Older people are usually religious, so they will appreciate your sacred gift even more if it reflects your respect for the senior. For such an important person as the head of the family, it is worth giving an elegant gold cross adorned with cubic zirconia or engraved with an angel. This is meant to symbolize care for the senior, watching over their good health and well-being.

It is worth emphasizing that sacred crosses, to exhibit elegance and luxury, should be made from the highest quality metal, and it is also good if they come with a certificate confirming that 14-carat gold was used in their production.

This is the perfect gift idea

Every woman will appreciate a gift in the form of gold jewelry, whether it be chains, medallions, bracelets, earrings, or crosses. A cross with a diamond set in it is also a good idea. Such a chic gift can be given for a birthday, name day, or a new life path, but also on the occasion of graduation, completion of a doctoral dissertation, and defense, promotion, or new job. Gold crosses, although in our culture and religion are a Catholic element, in Ancient Egypt, for example, symbolized abundance and fertility. Today, in our country, crosses without a religious emblem are seen as a symbol of perfection and a life guide.

If a gold cross is to be a gift for an elegant and stylish woman who loves luxurious accessories, it must be made of the highest quality gold, marked as 585. Only then will it guarantee that it is a product of the highest quality. An additional value of such a gift will be a gemstone set in the cross, which could be a zirconia, ruby, topaz, but the most valuable would be a diamond. Remember to include it with a chain so that the woman can wear it around her neck and always have it with her. Only then will it provide her with spiritual protection.

They will also be a perfect keepsake for a girl for her First Holy Communion or Baptism. Before purchasing such jewelry made of yellow or white gold, it is worth obtaining the parents' approval. They might already have a similar pendant or chains in the child's collection. In that case, a good idea would be to buy another type of gold jewelry separately or as a set.

In our collection, every woman will find a piece of jewelry for herself that will feature both yellow and white gold, whether it is a gold cross or a gold pendant. It will certainly match any outfit.

Who is it appropriate to give a men's cross to?

Just as women often choose classic gold crosses adorned with gemstones, a men's cross is often large and thick so that when worn on a chain around a man's neck, it stands out against his attire. Men generally do not attach importance to the sacred meaning of this type of gold jewelry. They look for secular motifs and evaluate them based on their size. They like to adorn them with unique and distinctive engravings. This is usually a favorite saying, the name of the woman in their life, or the names or initials of their children. A men's cross often has a decorated shape and is also set with zirconias or diamonds. Men opting for a Catholic motif on a gold cross most often choose one with a crucified Jesus on it. Men usually buy thick, heavy gold chains with the cross, which they wear around their necks.

Who is it appropriate to give a men's cross to? Any man who is important to us. Gold is a very precious metal, so it shows respect for the other person, indicating that they are important to us because we want to give them the best. In our Luxury Products store, we offer exceptional men's jewelry made of two-tone gold.

Silver cross - a cheaper alternative to white gold

Gold is an extremely valuable metal. It has always symbolized wealth and luxury. Therefore, its prices are quite high. This allows it to be considered an investment for your or your child's future. Unfortunately, not everyone can afford such an expense, especially when needing to buy gifts for two or three children for a communion, both for a boy and a girl. In such cases, a silver cross is an excellent idea, which can serve as an alternative to white gold. It's also worth considering combined jewelry, which is a mix of gold and silver. This is a more modern and creative solution, yet equally elegant and chic, making it a perfect gift for a communion, baptism, or confirmation. Our store offers a unique necklace with precious stones in gold and silver. It is an exclusive combination of silver with white gold and sparkling gemstones. We will deliver it to you elegantly packaged in an exclusive box, so this delicate gift is ready to be given as soon as you receive it.
